More controversial than funny, anyone remember when there was a mercantile mutual cup match going on and the showed pictures of a wedding nearby where there was a man and an asian lady and Tony Greig thought his mic was turned off and said "she's obviously flown out for the wedding" I think he got fined or suspended for that lol!

Navjot Singh Sidhu has some very funny ones. I don't remember most of them but here is one.

"An apple pie without cheese is like a kiss without squeeze!"

 

[Cybersmurf]

Navjot Singh Sidhu is just annoying!!
in one of the games this year, he sed "this is a slugest pitch," about once every over for the whole day!!! and he always says, "he hit it as crisp as a tooty fruity,"!!!

And when India were chasing a total set by New Zealand, he said to Martin Crowe 'You'd better reach for your hanky, you'll be crying very shortly...' and 'They are going to make mince meat of the Kiwis...'

New Zealand won that match

 

[Sriram k]

I think sometimes Sidhu supports India too much !! and yes , his words are rather monotonous....

 

[yaju]

He also supports Harbhajan. He sometimes says him as the "Sardar from Jalandhar".

 

[Cybersmurf]

i heard a funny one yesterday, Richie Benaud sed that Mark Waugh was a compulsive hooker

 

[Rich]

I heard a similar one from Richie Benaud in the last test...he said 'There are a lot of hookers around the world.'

 

[sean]

LOL!

Richie Benaud is getting too old for it....I reckon their preening up Tubby Taylor for his job!

He will wear the white!
